Happy Swimming

This weekend was a good weekend, groomed Shadow as planned.
Set up the 29 gal fish tank that I had gotten a while back at a garage sell. It has been running with water in it, getting the water seasoned. I needed a heater and a pump to complete the set up. Finally got around to doing that. So now the tank has a fish in it, a test fish you might say, he seems to be having a nice time swimming in a big tank. We got Star her collar too, she looks cute with her new collar. We put her rabies tag on it and it makes a little jingle noise, so you can hear her coming, she doesn't like it much. Now we hear jingle jingle from both girls. Sweet.

Lawn Mowed

Davkat came by and mowed the lawn but while driving in the drive way he hit the little car and broken the tail light. Guess we will have to go to pull apart or get us some red tape to fix it. Momoko sounds like she is enjoying her new class she is teaching this year. Has Black started his class and does he like it?

They evening is getting late and I have some tele to watch before hitting the sheets..later

Ragweed blowing in the wind

The weather is hot today, we have a few more days of hot weather before a cool front comes thru which should lower the temp by about 10 degrees with also gives us a chance of rain. The lawn needs to be mowed but we need to wait on Davkat to schedule us in, since it is hot today I am sure it will be later on this week. Ragweed in blowing in the wind so allergies are at a all time high.
Sneeze, sneeze, sniff ,sniff I need better drugs!

Just hanging around

Just hanging around waiting for Monday. This weekend just went by to fast. Yesterday we picked up the Angel food and went to the grocery store but never made it to Pet Smart. Poor Star is still with out a new collar. I wll have to fix that on Monday. Papa kat had a friend call with a computer problem so that ended our adventures for the day. Papa kat went to the Computer auction and then to his friends to fix the problem. He has to go back on Monday to do a little more work on it but he got it running enough to make his friend happy. Today was a lazy day watched some movies and fixed dinner. Trying something new, so we will have to see how it goes over. Chicken noodle casserole, sounds good right.

Great Meal

Today we celebrated Papa kat's Birthday at the local all you can eat place. Now I am stuffed!

Tomorrow Papa Kat is going to the computer auction, which is just a flea market with computer stuff. He needs a few things to fix a computer for one of his relatives, so he will be doing that tomorrow morning. I need to go to the pet store and pick up a new collar for Star, she is out growing the one she has had since she was a puppy, she now is 7 months old. I also need to pick up a few things from the grocery store. I am sure there is more on my list for tomorrow but I am trying to forget. ... Later.

Papa Kat's Big Day

Today was Papa's Kat's Birthday, I took the day off of work so we could go to the casino . That was what he had wanted for his Birthday. We don't go very often, getting a little extra isn't something that comes easy. We went and made a deposit but he seemed to have fun. I did win but donated it to his Birthday wish.
We had stopped of at McD's for a biscuit and then after wards stopped off a Furr's for a late lunch early dinner. Tomorrow it is back to work but it has been a nice day off. Today it rained again but it looks like the rest of the week is clear. We have had a lot of rain lately which we usually don't have in August. All the other schools in the area started today, so I guess summer is over.
Happy Birthday Papa Kat!

B B House

Watching the BB house this year has been a real trip, not sure I like where it is going but still watching.

Punky!!

I am lost with out Momoko's blogs!

Good Movie

Today we went to see District 9, it was very slow at the beginning and very boring. You would have even turned it off if you were watching it at home.
Then somewhere in the middle it all came together and grabbed you and you came away saying wow! I groomed 2 dogs and we put water in the fish tank I got last week, so it could start to stabilize. That sounds about it for the weekend chores.

Cheddars

Yesterday we went to Cheddars a new restaurant that opened in Midwest City on Monday. This is the place we decided to go to celebrate Davkat's birthday. The line was long, when we signed up they said 15 minutes but it didn't look a 15 minute wait to me. Well 15 minutes was more like a hour. When we received our food both BreKat's and my potato and side dishes were luke warm. So when the waiter came back we told him,. I wasn't wanting them to do anything, just let them know,since they were new and needed to work out some things. The manager came over and comped our meals, so we all eat for free. We gave the waiter a very nice tip. The food that was hot was very good. I think we will go back again when the lines aren't so long. Tomorrow our plans are to see District 9.

SCHOOL BUS TRAFFIC

Nothing much is knew here. Today the alarm people came out to fix our security system is was flashing a FS code which meant it was not communicating with something or other. It is fixed now. Tomorrow I go and get my hair cut. Friday were are suppose to go out and eat for Davkat's birthday. Hope he picks out some place good, his taste buds sometimes are different then mine. It's his choice so I guess I will have to live with it know matter what. Tomorrow one of the grand kittens will start back to school. I am not looking forward to the buses in the morning. I always seem to get behind one.

On the mend

Went to the paw Dr today, everything is going as expected.

Still have to wear the boot any time I will be on my feet for more then 30 minutes. I will need to get a transition pair of shoes on payday but the swelling will still be with me for a while. I can wear some compression stocking to help with that.

I can't wait.

G I Joe

This guy is a hunk!
The movie wasn't bad either. If you like action, this is the one to see, non stop for 1hr and 58 minutes. Now I have to get back to planet earth and finish dinner.
Bummer!

Garage Sale Find

Papa Kat and I were running some errands when we happened upon
a garage sale that had a fish tank for sale. It was a 29 gal Hiline which is like two 15 on top each other so for $7.00 it was a good deal. We decided to look at a few more garage sales and found a stand which came with a 10 gal tank. So for $12.00 I got a 29 gal ,10 gal and a stand that fits them both.
Now I have to find some place to put it. I can always sell it at the fish meeting if I decide not to keep it.

Missing hearing from Tator and Bubba

What's up, Haven't been hearing from the the young ones. I guess they are having to much fun this summer. I know that they will be coming home soon. The dreaded school starts soon so maybe then the Tator will write again.
I did hear from Momoko today, that's always very nice. She did tell me that the young ones are still live and kick'n, So that makes me very happy.

Feeling Full and Broke

Fixed pork chops for dinner with a little baked potato on the side. Now I am feeling full.

Today we decided to pay a Kohl's' bill via the phone, we normally write a check. Now that the stamps have gone up we are trying to pay everything either on line or over the phone. Papa kat had the job of getting that done.

The account is in my name, so of course that wouldn't take money from him. I called and it would be a $5.00 charge over the phone but we could do it on line for free. Many moons ago Papa Kat had set up a password on the account and of course I could not figure it out. It gave you that hint that you always have to check when you set one up. Now did he put his birth place or mine. Both didn't work so another phone call was in order. She gave me the answer to the hint, which was the town and the state but Papa kat had abbreviated the state not like it should have been so I would have never figured it out. Now everything is paid but they sure didn't make it easy, just to pay a bill.

You would think they would take money from anyone, Guess not.

Dumplin time

Today I did the snail thinning out thing and cleaned the front of the tanks and changed a filter.
That was my work on the tanks for the day.
Dinner was homemade chicken and dumplings, Very yummy. Davkat brought over some french bread that just hit the spot with the soup. Now that my tummy is full I could take a short nap but bed time is just around the corner.
Today I decided it was time to wear a shoe around the house on the foot I had surgery on. To my surprise nothing fit, guess it is still swollen , at least enough that I can't wear any of my shoes. Bummer. Next week I go to the Dr. to see how much longer I will have to wear the boot. So If I don't have to wear it then I guess new shoes will be in order but do I get two sizes??

Good Fishy day

Went to the fish meeting and the talk was about algae and a small talk about snails. They both were interesting long and the short of it was you can't really get rid of snails. Once a week I normally just weed them out. I did get some good deals on some fish, spent a total of $20.00 and 10 of it was for a pair of panda cory catfish. The others were some assorted swords, all were very small fry.

I decided since I had small babies it was time to move my other small fish in the tank with bigger fish. Which means in order to catch them I had to move all the rocks out and also be very quick with the net. Now because I was moving these fish in a tank with bigger fish I have to move the rocks around in that tank too, I didn't have to take them out just move them around to change their territories. Now everyting is in the correct tank. Tomorrow I will have to thin out the snails and watch the new fish swim around. They are so cute.
